ABSTRACT:
A method of forming an integrated circuit field effect transistor with surface counter-doped lightly doped drain regions is described. A gate silicon oxide layer is formed on the silicon substrate. A layer of polysilicon is deposited over the gate silicon oxide layer and etched to form a gate electrode structure. A first ion implantation is performed at a tilt angle to form lightly doped drain regions in the semiconductor substrate wherein the lightly doped drain regions are partially overlapped by the gate electrode structure. A second ion implantation is performed at a larger tilt angle and lower energy than the first ion implantation wherein the second ion implantation counter-dopes the surface of the lightly doped drain regions to form a very lightly doped drain layer thus making the lightly doped drain regions buried regions. A thin layer of silicon oxide is deposited over the surface of the polysilicon gate electrode structure and is anisotropically etched to form ultra thin spacers on the sidewalls of the polysilicon gate electrode structure. A third ion implantation is performed with no tilt angle to complete formation of the lightly doped drain regions. A glasseous layer is deposited over all surfaces of the substrate and flowed followed by metallization and passivation to complete manufacture of the integrated circuit.
